“If I said to you that I wanted to measure your efficiency at running, and in trial1 allowed you to use 100percent of your body, including arms and legs. Imagine we videoed your running and examined it for style & mechanical efficiency. Most of us would score pretty highly.
Imagine now that in trial2 I allowed you only 50percent of your operating potential, and tied your right arm and foot together, behind your back, How would you do?
You would be flat on your back within seconds, Efficiency? Less than zero.
Why? Because the parts of your body are made to work together and in doing so each part multiplies a thousand-fold the efficiency of the other.
It is the same with your brain. When you use only one side of your cortical skills, your creativity is nothing in comparison to what it can be.
When you use both sides, your creative potential becomes infinite.”
